I think the much bigger question is "What would it take for you to move?" The moving itself seems inconsequential if you have a great job lined up, you've spent every other weekend together for a year, and a continuous week twice in the last six months, and you're compatible, in love and the planets are aligned.

However, that rarely seems to be the case, and I'm continuously astonished at how quickly people move out of state for someone they've only spent a few days with real time. Yes, there are phone calls every day and tons of time online, but it boils down to a few days in real time, and that just isn't long enough to get to know someone, in my opinion. I think there are definitely success stories, but I also believe there was a lot of luck involved there, because again, how can you really make a truly informed and intelligent decision on whether to live with someone if you've only spent 10 or 20 or even 30 days of face-to-face time with them? I'm definitely not old fashioned - I'm just cautious. I'm also not someone who needs to be with someone; I'm perfectly happy being single, or just dating, so there is no driving force for me to want to live with someone, and the older I get, the more I appreciate my own space and don't want to live with anyone. Less fuss that way
